Quality Control

Our (E)-Tridec-2-En-4-One is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC/HPLC for purity and IR/NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and potential concentration changes. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
